🧵It’s disappointing to see States like Utah and Arkansas passing laws condemning gender affirming care without looking at the facts. You can’t be the pro-life party and continually pass laws that don’t save lives. #txlege #LGBTQ #transrights
Suicidal thoughts for trans or non binary Americans is 54% and 29% of those actually do take their own lives. Parents are fighting to keep their children alive, with mental health support and gender affirming care. They are doing the right thing to keep their kids alive!
While we stand by LGBTQ+ families and their personal freedoms and rights to choose what’s best for their children, we also stand by the Gender Affirming Care Doctors.
Medical treatment and medical care have advanced in this area and we live in a state where our legislative body is threatening prison for doctors who care for our most vulnerable population. They saw how successful threats were with the Abortion Ban so they continue.
Legislators are also threatening companies who support their employees getting the gender care they are seeking and covering it with their health plan. Those seeking gender affirming care in Texas is a very small percentage. You wouldn't know it by the way the politicians talk.
But .75 % of all Texas are Transgender. Let me put it to you in simple terms. If you had $100 only 75 cents would be transgender. So why so much effort to bully and go after the most vulnerable Texans? It’s just not a smart use of our tax dollars and energy.
We rather they debate the need for more rural health care than pick on these vulnerable few Texas. We also don’t know about you, but we thought the Republican party was the party of small government,
yet here they are ready to lock up everyone who isn’t in lock step with their beliefs. That’s not small government, that’s Fascism. We miss the days when Republicans were Fascists.
Articles I used for my research: projectq.us/trans-populati…
And we reserve the right to block anyone we want who comes after us with their anti LGBTQ bullshit. You people need to stop, learn, listen and try to understand. Take a biology class to learn more about how human biology works. You could learn something.
And the bible didn't say anything about trans people and Jesus wore a tunic FFS. And trust me no one talks about sex more than Republicans. Y'all have issues.
weren't fascists
